Hi there, today we will be talking about courage. A key element to self-motivation.
It takes courage to dream big, to make plans towards achieving your dreams and to take action. It takes courage to rise up against opposition and ridicule. It takes courage to lead yourself. Without courage, defeat comes easy.
Do you know that courage is not the absence of fear, it is doing something in spite of fear. It is taking the step towards your dreams in spite of the odds against you.
So I will share with you some powerful quotes on Courage to keep you going on your journey to greatness. Here we go;
“Though an army encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; though war rise up against me, yet I will be confident.”
The Bible, Psalm 27:3 NRSV
“We must constantly build dykes of courage to hold back the flood of fear.”
Martin Luther King Jr
“You cannot build character and courage by taking away a man's initiative and independence.”
Abraham Lincoln
"Without courage you cannot practice any of the other virtues."
Maya Angelou
"Courage is the first of human qualities because it is the quality which guarantees the others."
Aristotle
“The journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.”
Lao Tzu
“All our dreams can come true - if we have the courage to pursue them.”

"Don't be afraid to take a big step if one is indicated. You can't cross a chasm in two small jumps."

“Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.”

Courage is standing tall when it's obvious you aint tall. Put this quote to practise in your daily life, meditating on each every day. It will surprise you how much courage you will have to face each day at the break of each dawn. Be encouraged.
